Safe Arrival in Asilah
I received word from Addie that the group has arrived safe and sound in the scenic Atlantic coast town of Asilah for two days of R&R&R (rest, relaxation, and reflection) and touring. This low-key setting with its tidy, mural-flecked (courtesy of its annual summer cultural festival which attracts artists and performers throughout Africa), white-washed medina and its "Paradise Beach" will be a refreshing and airy downshift from the intensity of Fes.
